First of all, I don’t think they’ve broken up. Then, I haven’t heard this rumor, but even if she asked for more money, I don’t think it could be a deal breaker for them. She said many times money wasn’t the reason why they didn’t get along in the 90′s so a salary gap isn’t going to settle between them now. Actually, I don’t even think David would mind at this point. And finally, I don’t think it’s true. Gillian said that when it comes to The X-Files, she lets David’s team negotiate first and then she asks for the same.
I love the idea of her claiming her money back from all those years she was paid half his salary, but I honestly don’t believe the money is the issue in the negotiations now. It’s more likely the number of episodes, in my opinion.
